CTTE as the Yes boys were at the top of their game with this entire album (with a fond look backwards towards SR).

I back Supper's Ready for win, but they might not. But yes, put any other song against Close to The Edge and i bet it could never get this close.

For a long time I would have said Supper's Ready, now I might incline for Close to the Edge a bit.

But both 11/10 pieces.
I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place

What a "fratricide" choice !
Supper's ready is excellent and may be more rich and creative than Close to the edge,
but never gave me these escaping moments.
Do, my vote for Yes !

CTTE--because it is  what great prog should be--musicians playing the hell out of their instruments and playing at the top of their game---Love Suppers Ready but only near perfect---not enough great playing except for the end.

Too different to choose!

Both are amazing and opened the way to new horizons.

No point in making a choice.

Ooh, this is a TOUGH one. Two great masterpieces of prog rock, and we have to decide which we like better. Don't you guys know that some of us find these kind of polls frustrating? Wink 
 
"Close to the Edge" wins for me, though, because although "Supper's Ready" is a little easier to follow and has some killer transitions, "Close to the Edge" seems to have a brighter atmosphere and a better flow. This is actually a general reason why I like Yes more than Genesis.
 
But I'm expecting to have the opposite opinion tomorrow. LOL
